Haunted Houses (attractions)

This is the 13th year Sugar Sand Park will convert to Halloween central for Shriek Week, complete with a haunted house and walkthrough, shows, trick-or-treating, carnival games and a children's scary film festival.

With at least 9,000 people expected over the course of five evenings, reservations ($9 each) are encouraged, said Stacee Lanz, Sugar Sand special events coordinator. The event is 6 to 11 p.m. Oct. 20, 21, 27 and 28.

A "lite nite" is 5 to 9 p.m. Oct. 26. "We want a less intense experience. We make it a little brighter, the soundtrack is modified and the actors are less scary," Lanz said.
